• Remove the Velcro pad (2) from
the storage compartment door
(3).
• Place Velcro (5) on aftermarket
transmitter (6) opposite of
actuator control (8).
• Measure the thickness (4) of the
aftermarket transmitter (6).
• Remove the rubber actuator (1)
from the storage compartment
(7) by pulling the rubber actuator
(1) forward and twisting at the
same time.
Note: The length of the rubber
actuator (1) is critical. Use care
in cutting it to length. If the rubber
actuator (1) is cut too much the
aftermarket transmitter (6) will not
activate the garage door opener. If
the rubber actuator (1) is cut too
long, the storage compartment door (3) will not close properly.
Excessive force to close the storage compartment door (3) may cause
the door latch to break.
• Per the table below, cut the rubber actuator (1) to the proper length
based on the thickness (4) measured in the third step.
